R2R: From Reads to Results.

"It doesn't have to be so complicated"

R2R is a simple to use package for very sensitive analysis of short read sequence data obtained by NextGen sequencing techniques. R2R was developed in conjunction with data obtained on the Illumina GA platforms. R2R is written in simple Perl script and runs equally well under MS Windows, Mac OS and Linux/Unix operative systems.

Current version: Version 0.950

What is R2R?

R2R align sequence reads to a reference sequence using new algorithms. R2R was developed using Illumina sequence data as test data, but will work with any short read sequence data in FASTQ format.

R2R introduces a new class of aligned reads indicative of insertion/deletion (InDel reads).

R2R use the information in Paired End / Mate Pair reads.

R2R utilize the quality information accompanying each nucleotide in a new way to improve precision of mutation/SNP and InDel calls.

R2R is a complete suite that takes you from a reference sequence and sequence data to analysis and visualization of results in your favorite internet-browser.

The test-data set contains 25000 reads analyzed with phiX174 as a reference sequence.

The analysis shows 5 simple point mutations.

The hsm_3 data set contains ~6 million reads obtained from the E. coli hsm_3 mutant analyzed with E. coli MG1655 as a reference. hsm_3 data set (zip) (642 Mb). Data comes all included: raw data, indexed data, ini-files, html-index files and html panel files so you can re-run analysis (with different setttings) or just enjoy the results. Cheat?
